OpenOffice 4.1.1 translation and dictionary updates: 2 weeks left

[Andrea Pescetti <pe...@apache.org>]

The translation deadline for OpenOffice 4.1.1 is set to July 18.

Please make sure that by that time you not only make the necessary 
updates, but also open the relevant issues (or send a note here to the 
l10n list). Tip: you can clone an existing issue in Bugzilla with the 
link at the bottom of the issue page when you are logged in.

1) New languages: if your language is not released in 4.1.0 
http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html but is at 100% in Pootle 
https://translate.apache.org/projects/aoo40/ then open an issue to add 
it. You can clone https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125204 
and modify the relevant values (when possible; not all languages are 
there, but we can deal with it).

2) Updated translations: no new strings were added since OpenOffice 
4.0.0. So if your language is released in 4.0.0, 4.0.1 or 4.1.0 it will 
be released in 4.1.1 too. But, if you made corrections to your 
translation, you need to request that it is imported in 4.1.1. You can 
clone https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125130 and modify 
the relevant values; please state in the issue body if your language is 
ready to be imported already, meaning that you are no longer updating it.

3) New dictionaries: at 
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst?view=markup 
you can see if we are bundling a dictionary for your language. You can 
add a dictionary provided that it is hosted on our Extensions site, 
http://extensions.openoffice.org/ ; open an issue like 
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124212 adapting the 
relevant fields.

4) Update an existing dictionary: same as above, but specify the version 
we should download and include.

This time I'm CCing translators of languages that are not very far from 
completion in Pootle or that have recent activity, but future 
announcements will be sent to the list only. So do subscribe to the 
mailing list if you want to receive announcements: send an empty e-mail 
message to l10n-subscribe@openoffice.apache.org and respond to the 
confirmation request you will receive.

Regards,
   Andrea.

Q. Do we need to open a separate issue for an Help translation update, or
would Juergen update both UI & Help translation at once if aoo40
translation was marked as blocker? And, what if Help isn't 100% done (e.g.
Hebrew Help translation has improved, but still far from 100%).
